Good Morning MMC!!!! It's cold here in central Indy and the snow is starting to fall. It looks like we are going to see a little bit this morning and then the main event will arrive later this afternoon. They are still calling for 6 to 10 inches but I'm hoping they are wrong. I don't have much planned for today. I'm thinking about doing some baking this morning and then this afternoon will be devoted to Nascar. There will also be several trips outside to shovel. I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!!!

I know the feeling, Claire! Love snow, but ready for Spring!!
Too bad we couldn't set it aside & save it up for the holiday season!!

Have a wonderful Sunday!! :sparkle:
 
Morning everyone. Hope your all having a good weekend so far. It's a bit chilly here, but it's hats on and out for a walk for my wife & I. We were cooped up yesterday with the weather, but I'm getting cabin fever so I think We'll brave a walk. Might need a Starbucks to warm up though on the way home.
 
Hello everybody! It's been a while since I posted in here, I hope everyone is well. I am good.

A work update: The guy I have worked with the last few years found another job and left. He and my supervisor couldn't get along, so it wasn't a surprise, it was coming for some time now. They do, however tell me it will be within the next couple of months that I get moved to the earlier shift, we shall see.

I hope everybody is having a great weekend!

Speaking of popcorn, I can't remember if I posted or not that I bought a new popcorn popper after I had my hair done the other day. Popcorn is probably my favorite snack (or as MANY of my third grade writers would write, "snakes," thinking they were spelling it correctly!

A friend gave us a Whirly Pop years ago as a gift. It's a stovetop popper that looks like a stock pot. The lid has an attachment that stirs the popcorn with a crank while it's popping so it doesn't burn. It makes the BEST popcorn, and almost as fast as a microwave. Made some for our movie fest last night! Drizzle some butter-flavored pop 'n' top oil on it, sprinkle on some grated Parmesan, eat it while it's warm---mmmmmm .... It also makes great kettle corn if you throw in some sugar with the unpopped corn.
 
What's for dinner, Claire? I've said it once and I'll say it again, I wish we had snow!!! Enjoy it while you can!

Sitting here celebrating March Rudolph Day (1 day early). I love thinking about what will be happening in 9 months....can't wait for the baby to be here. Christmas will be so much more fun! Seems like I'm ready for this season more than seasons past....I'm already anticipating it waaaaayyyyy more.

Watching a Christmas movie that I taped and drinking coffe....about to head to work in a bit. Got a few things to do before kids come back.

Have a good day. I will catch up tonight! See yall!
 
Thanks for the reminder, FTS. Yesterday I ordered National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, Sleepless in Seattle, and You Got Mail. Now I need to order Santa Clause, and I think I will order, well, my mind just went blank--chemo brain strikes at the most inopportune times. I'll remember it later, I'm sure! What are some other Christmas movies I should order for my new portable DVD player? I have Elf, that much I remember, LOL!

Blessed Palm Sunday to you all!

Still enjoying our first really truly weekend in a while! I love sitting down with the laptop on a Sunday morning and reading the posts. After this I might put on a pot of tea and watch an episode of "Upstairs Downstairs." (Seasons 1 through 5 are free on Amazon Prime, so I've been watching it. Just about to start Season 4. As usual, I'm behind the times---everyone else watches "Downton Abbey," but I'm watching a series from the 1970s!)

Lots of good movie fun (and popcorn) last night. The sun is out today and it's beginning to look like spring, even if it's too cold to feel like it. I almost forgot that I bought a beanbag Marshmallow Peep last year. I dug it out so I can put it on my desk at work this week. No, I think I'll put it in my toy barn with the farmyard animals!

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Talk about a day, I left for the grocery store at 11am and didn't get home until a little after 8pm. That's what happens when I run into my sister though. Not to mention the fact that Meijer was packed. I don't even know if I'v ever seen it that busy on black Friday. You'd think we were getting 10 feet of snow instead of 10 inches. I'll be back to get caught up after the Skillet is over.

People always seem to panic when they hear a storm is coming - Doesn't matter if it is only an inch or two of snow, they still want to hoard - Geesh. :hi:

Good evening,

Long day at work, I am feeling so sick, my ears are blocked, and just feeling crummy. I went through all the posts, just didn't respond to many.

Good night everyone.

A Christmas Story, A Christmas Carol, White Christmas??

What types are you wanting? Classics? Hallmark movies? All of the above?!

I have two totes of Christmas movies, I really need to make a list of them. At some point, It became a collection.
